While sebum, an oily substance made of fats, is necessary for keeping skin moisturised, an overproduction can clog pores and make your face look shiny. Enlarged pores are a characteristic of oily skin, as they are likely to produce excess oil. This overproduction creates an oily feeling that returns even after cleansing your skin.

Your appointment will begin with an assessment to establish your skin needs and recommend the right facial to address your specific concerns. During your facial, active ingredients are infused into the skin to help correct and transform, followed by a personalised at-home skin ritual tailored to your needs.
These results are based on your answers submitted to our Skin Type Quiz.
As results are general in nature and your skin has not been assessed in person, we do recommend booking for an in-spa consultation with a therapist at your local endota spa for more specialised advice.
